The AirTAC Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE125X150B is a genuine double acting ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
This AirTAC ACE125X150B is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder with a 125 mm bore and a 150 mm stroke, delivering 6135.9 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its hard-anodized aluminium body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it fits into tight machine frames and guarding where a full-length cylinder would not.
With a 25 mm hard-chrome plated S45C rod and a male thread end, this model suits high-force applications in a compact envelope. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and since this unit has no -S code, there is no magnet fitted, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be mounted without ordering the optional -S version. For a 2:1 safety margin on vertical lifting, plan to lift about 375 kg at 0.5 MPa, not the full theoretical rating.

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
Use this 125 mm bore cylinder as the main ram in a small hydraulic-style press frame, where its 6135.9 N push at 0.5 MPa drives stamping or forming dies with a short stroke.
Mount this cylinder on a welding fixture to clamp large steel panels securely. The 5890.5 N pull force at 0.5 MPa holds parts firmly during robotic welding, and the compact body fits between locating pins.
In a laboratory test stand, this cylinder applies a controlled 6135.9 N force to compress samples or test seals. The fixed TPU bumper ensures smooth deceleration at both ends of the 150 mm stroke.
At 125 mm bore, this cylinder provides 6135.9 N push and 5890.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, making it a strong choice for heavy clamping or pressing. If you need less force, the 100 mm bore version pushes 3927.0 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 125 mm bore with a longer stroke up to 300 mm standard is available for larger travels. This model has a male rod thread (B code) and a 1/4" PT port, so verify your fittings and rod coupling match this configuration. Since the magnet is optional and not fitted here, order the -S code if you need position sensing with CMSE or DMSE switches.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 6135.9 N and the pull force is 5890.5 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 8590.3 N and pull is 8246.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 1251.4 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This is a double acting cylinder, so air extends and retracts the rod.
No, this ACE125X150B does not have a magnet because the model code lacks the -S suffix. To use CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches, you must order the -S version, which includes the optional magnet. The cylinder has a fixed TPU bumper at both ends, not an adjustable cushion, and operates at speeds from 30 to 500 mm/s.
